CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2013-2017 Nissan Sentra has an expensive CVT transmission failure defect that shows up plainly in our complaint data from the earlier model years in this same 7th generation Sentra.
Because many owners commonly drive 20,000 miles/year or more, Sentra owners experiencing CVT transmission problems may find they are not covered by this settlement due to the mileage limitation.
Check engine light went on. Had diagnostic run and it said bad mass air flow sensor. Had sensor replaced by my friend, a local mechanic. About 2 months later, the check engine light is on again and it says it is the mass air flow sensor again. -- I keep reading that is a complaint that Nissan is well aware of but has not issued a recall. I'm getting pretty irritated. We purchased car used with about 25,000 miles. During the warranty period, the car stranded my daughter at 10:00 at night as the alternator went bad, had to tow the car and had alternator replaced by the dealer. So, this is the 3rd occurrence with this car in a little over a year. Doubt I will buy another Nissan, although I have owned several others in the past without any real issues. NISSAN? ARE YOU LISTENING TO ME?

Replaced air filter and also cleaned mass air flow sensor, and still check engine light is on. Car runs very poorly.
